Vascular Hemodynamics: Bioengineering and Clinical Perspectives

Recently, vascular hemodynamics has undergone major advances,
resulting from increasingly sophisticated imaging, computational,
and clinical research methodologies. The effects of these advances
are likely to be profound at both the scientific and clinical
levels. Now, Vascular Hemodynamics provides a self-contained
treatment of this rapidly advancing topic as it relates to vascular
disease and related pathologies in the human body.

Utilizing a multidisciplinary approach encompassing engineering,
vascular biology, vascular imaging, and clinical practice, the book
provides a survey of the basic science and clinical research in
hemodynamics of the vasculature. The topics presented involve
sophisticated modeling, imaging, and measurement techniques. The
text emphasizes both the technical and clinical aspects of the
field.

Discusses diverse pathologies of the large vessels, the
microvasculature, and the systematic vasculature
*

Brings together a range of imaging modalities related to
hemodynamics
*

Includes both introductory-level and research-oriented material on
each topic

Vascular Hemodynamics is the only single-text treatment of this
important topic, making it a vital reference for researchers and
students of bioengineering, radiology, vascular surgery, neurology,
nephrology, cardiology, and oncology.

Peter J. Yim, PhD, is Assistant Professor in the Department of Radiology at the UMDNJ  Robert Wood Johnson Medical School in New Brunswick, New Jersey. He is a recognized leader in the field of hemodynamic modeling and imaging of the vascular system, with awards in these areas from the Radiological Society of North America, the National Institutes of Health, and the SPIE.

“This is the only complete book on this topic, providing readers with a clear and comprehensive understanding of the fundamentals of and recent advances in the field of hemodynamics as it relates to vascular disease states in the human body.” (Doody's Reviews, March 2009)
